This was a wonderful place to stay for a group of 8. The villa was spotless when we arrived and had everything set up for arrival. What really makes this villa stand apart from others is the outside space; splint over two levels and a perfect little sun trap, the courtyard garden is a perfect place to relax.
The villa is only a 5-10 minute walk from the local village where there is a small grocery store, a local bar that sells really cheap beer and also takeaway pizza, and a bus stop where you can catch the 1a bus which takes you directly to Pile Gate.
We really enjoyed our stay here - thank you very much Sober family!

The villa was great! Plenty of space, peaceful area and in walking distance of small shops and the local 1A bus to town. The only issue we came across were the mosquitoes but the local shop does sell products to help this problem.

We had a fantastic stay here last week, the villa is beautiful, spacious, very clean and extremely well stock with anything you could possibly need and was perfect for us - a group of 8 adults
The owners are lovely and helped us with any queries really quickly, couldnt fault a thing - thank you to the Sobers!
The outside areas are lovely with plenty of space for relaxing and dining and although some of us were attacked by mosquitoes we ended up dealing with those by burning some of the Raid spirals you can easily buy at the local shop for about £1.
The bus stop and shop is about 10 min walk away from the villa and we found it really easy to get in to the Old Town this way, no need for taxis
The sea is very clear and clean for swimming from the jetty located opposite
Again, couldnt fault anything about this villa - we had a great time and wouldnt hesitate to recommend Villa Frana for families or friends

What can I say about Villa Frana that has not already been said - yes, it is spacious and extremely clean with two very well equipped kitchens, an upstairs lounge, two shower rooms, four double bedrooms, an upper and lower ground outside terrace, a refreshingly cool swimming pool with nearby BBQ area, and more - but what hasnt been said is that it is such a magical place in which to stay. Parts of the wonderfully renovated villa apparently date back to the 15th century and it has been owned by the same family for generations - indeed it has such a wonderful warm atmosphere that I did not want to leave! It is just perfect for a relaxing holiday, near enough to Dubrovnik (7 km) but on the outskirts of the village of Mokosica (which has a extremely well stocked village store and the 1A bus to the Old City - first stop Mokosica village: last stop Pile Gate, Old City Dubrovnik and visa versa so no chance of getting on or off at the wrong stop and it cost us 15 kuna each way per person - roughly £1.50). There are two jetties almost opposite the Villa on the waters edge which can be used for sunbathing on or snorkelling/swimming from, in the amazingly clear water. The beautiful blue skies, warmth from the sun and the sound of the crickets really added to the whole experience. The only downside were the little almost invisible mosquitos which seemed to like us rather a lot but on mentioning this, the owner immediately organised for someone to spray the garden and pool area to reduce these pests. In fact, I have nothing but the highest praise for the owner and all the family and friends we met, as they were so incredibly helpful in answering my many queries, from the initial email correspondence months before the holiday date, right through to the day we reluctantly left to come home - they were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. I can recommend 100% the large welcome pack which kept us fed and watered for two days after arrival the transfer from the airport was just wonderful especially as our flight was delayed and we arrived two hours late. All in all, I, and all my family of six (husband, daughter, son, niece, "surrogate daughter" and myself), had an amazing holiday at Villa Frana and would like to thank the Sober family and friends for making our stay in Croatia such a memorable one - we will be back!

Stayed 14 Jun 2014 with Family

We were travelling with group of five adults, four kids and we fitted nicely to this lovely villa. Kids loved the pool, and the adults liked the grill and the yard. A car was nice to have as the villa is little bit away from the nearest village. On the other hand, the location is nice and quiet, and not that far away from Dubrovnik. Owner said that there is a local bus route going in front of the villa, but we didnt try that.

Nine of us stayed here a week ago and couldnt have asked for anything better. When we first arrived we all commented on how clean the villa looked and even smelt. The bedding and towels were immaculate and the pool was glistening! We werent expecting anything in the fridge/cupboards but they had been stocked with all the things we needed for the first day, including some local alcohol which we were told we could help ourselves to! The villa has everything you need and more. There is a wonderful BBQ outside and all the cutlery/crockery/utensils you could ever need. There is a bus that goes from just down the road into the old town and a local shop and bar by the bus stop. We bought so much from the shop that the owner drove us back with our bags. Highly, highly recommend this villa and location!
